1997 Mitsi Legnum (VR4) SOLD SOLD AT LASt

[steelroe]

It is on english plates, so no NCT (VRT 700). It was tested just before I brought it in from UK. At this price I aint spending any more money on it to be honest.
I can prob get my hands on a manual box, or at least I know where there was one, just need to check it is still there.

[CJ]

If I were to buy this Legnum, I'd be ripping out the rear seats and registering it as a commercial, the money saved on tax alone would be significant.

It should qualify for 50 quid vrt. Someone buy this! Stop paying huge money for bloody.passats!

Does it want for anything besides the VRT and NCT/DOE?

its a long time since i was here after having to sell the fto(boo hoo and tears) but im looking at buying a vr4 but it needs some rear suspension bits wishbone etc are you gonna break this rory or have you any other vr4 bits knocking around

[steelroe]

1000 euro and you can have the entire car. Running a dream and you could remove whatever you need and sell the rest.
Engine isworth almost a grand alone

[richardc9052]

to be honest if i had seen this thread i would have happily given you a grand over buying my fto, hell, if it is still there in a few months when i get a new job i will prob buy it off you and track it... how this hasnt been sold already is beyond me!!

[eamop]

rory im definitely interested at that price but just want to check if i can convert it to commercial and then just pay the smaller vrt rate can you send some pics of it as it is now and the interior please you should have my email address i bought a matrix for my fto off you last year but here it is again anyway phelaneamonn@yahoo.ie
cheers mate

[steelroe]

Yes you can convert to commercial and pay lower VRT. A friend converted this GTO a couple of weeks ago http://cars.donedeal.ie/for-sale/cars/1809731, cannot understand how a coupe can be commercial.

Give me a call and I will fill you in on it.

Will take pic of interior tomorrow.
I bought it to use engine for FTO conversion but could not justify breaking such a good clean (powerful car).

Anly real bad point is hole in exhaust at rear.

[Myfeckin FTO]

If I had an FTO I'd be taking your arm off around now.

[eamop]

ok cheers rory will call you tomorrow when i get the pics can you send some of it with the fto wheels as well please and your number too cheers so i can call you

[steelroe]

If I could afford it I would have it on the road. Just dont make sense with 3 vehicles already insured, also sick of wife giving out about how she told me not to buy it in the first place.
I really dont want to break it, would much prefer to see someone use it for a conversion and sell on the other bits, easily make their money back. Truth being told I should have scrapped it long ago and advertised the parts, besides staring out the kitchen window every evening.

Also forgot to say it needs 2 ties rods fitted, which I have, but no time to fit. Mentioned this in previous post but just remembered it now

[eamop]

no hassle rory any chance of those pics

[steelroe]

Not got a chance today. Will do in mornin if weather permits. Frost has killed the battery so have to sort one out..
Have another guy interested now given the price,but you have first refusal.

[steelroe]

Just ran a VRT calculation on revenue.ie and VRT as a commercial is €125

[steelroe]

As I said you have first refusal. The guy that is interested has dropped off a ski for repair so he wont be back for a week or two.
Will sent pics tomorrow.
